Group Ride in ONF for Juggalo_Warrior

Buy the carb cleaner at any automotive parts store like autozone. I have the filter oil for the K&N. You should probably get an oil filter and 3 quarts of 10w40 oil so we can do an oil change.

Thanks will do.   Why motorcycle oil versus regular oil?

Well motorcycle oil is supposed to have added inhibitors to slow oil breakdown. However if you buy a good quality oil and you change your oil as often as I reccomend it doesnt have a chance to break down. Price difference of about 3.00 a quart

Auto oil has friction modifiers- whatever the hell that is- which is supposed to be real bad for the quad's clutch. Wal-mart has Mobil1 motorcycle oil and that's what I use.

Copied this from some website.  Seemed like a good summary.  Probably more than you ever wanted to know

"...it is best to use only oils which are NOT energy-conserving for motorcycles with wet clutches. Read the back of the container. It clearly identifies this. In general, only the very lighter oils, like 10w30, 10w20, 5w20, are energy-conserving. All 5w40, 5w50, 10w40, 15w40, 15w50, and 20w50 oils which I have found are not energy-conserving and can be recommended for general motorcycle use.

It is commonly mis-stated that SJ and SL oils have friction modifiers which will cause wet clutch slippage. In reality, all oils have friction modifiers, that's how they work. The real issue is to avoid getting the friction so low, with very thin oils containing extra amounts of friction modifiers, that clutches will slip under normal use. Stay away from energy conserving oils and you should be fine, if your clutch is in good working order. "

we still have yet decided if we are riding or not, we are going to hockey game sat night so we will probably decide at the last second to go, those are always the best trips, lol.

[susieblazer]

  We are sooooooooo ready will have ppark350se along for the ride too......... :drive.gif

[mudmonkey]

i would LIKE to go, but i dont think so   

[atvtrailer]

im not exactly sure where your talking about meeting, i come off 42 and go north on 588 til i come to the campground, where your talking about meeting, is that down near blue sink?(so i would take a right when i get to big scrub and head towards there???)

Ok what you want to do is to continue past 588 on hwy 42 until you reach hwy 19 its about 8 miles east of 588. Go north on hwy 19 till you reach hwy 445 turn right which is east go approx 2 miles till you get to the powerlines. we are meeting right there. There is plenty of parking.

Sent you a PM before reading this post.

[LE450-RACER#77]

So how many people are going on this ride so far ? Is this a slow cruise or a fast ride & how far are you planning on riding because my 450 loves to drink some gas.

[LE450-RACER#77]

Is Dreth & everyone else from the speed ride going ?

[Bigscrb15]

I imagine the sport ride will be kinda fast, but with some stops because of such a large group. Hopefully the ute ride will be slower with lots of mud and water.

[LE450-RACER#77]

Yes PLEASE no mud or water for me because I have no airbox.

[T2]

Since It200 has a 25 mile loop on his GPS I forgot to ask him about the mud situation, I didn't mind watching the uty's going through the mud as long as there is a way around the mud for me. I am with you no air box lid on the bike and besides its a pain in the azz to clean.

[IT200]

Ok the official meeting spot for the ride is the powerlines and Hwy 445 2 miles east of Hwy 19. We should all meet there at 9:00 AM. We will try to start the ride as soon as possible after 9:00  It will be a 25 mile loop with not to much mud if any ( I ride a sport quad ) But there will be an area that the mudders can have fun at.

[IT200]

Anyone who is still looking for a place to camp is wellcome to camp in our yard. We are about 8 miles from where the ride will start. Just PM me for directions or my cell #

[Bigscrb15]

Oooops, I was thinking of the Eureka ride when I said the sport ride and ute ride. Ill shutup now, lol. I think we need to set it like normal, meet at 8 ride at 9 to allow the people that are always late no matter what to get there or meet at 9 ride at 930 or 10
